Manage User Rights

There are four VMware NSX User roles that can be applied to users or groups of users. These are:

Enterprise Administrator – NSX Operations and Security.

NSX Administrator – NSX Operations only.

Security Administrator – NSX Security only.

Auditor – Read Only.

Manage User Rights: Assign roles to User Accounts or Groups

In this example, we are going to assign the NSX Administrator role to an individual user. In real life, as a best practice recommendation, you would assign the role to a group so that all members of the group would be given the role.

Note: These steps assume you are not even logged into vCenter Server. Skip the first few steps if you are!
